Remember Ryuko

A young girl with brown hair and a blue and white outfit is shown in distress, crying and struggling as she is held by a large, colorful creature with red, green, and blue sections, against a dark, cloudy sky. The sequence shows her initially screaming and flailing, then crying with a determined expression as she grips the creature, followed by a close-up of a dark-haired character with a serious expression, before returning to the girl's face contorted in anguish and tears.
